This guy may be fond of the Blazers, but he doesn't seem to value our guys very much -

"How about Channing Frye, Steve Blake and Travis Outlaw to Philadelphia for Miller? The Blazers get a point guard with slightly better stats than Devin Harris, the player they would get from the Dallas Mavericks in the proposed three-team deal with New Jersey"

Wow, we'll get better stats...

I just rolled my eyes when I read that.

That's why J.A. Adande is a sports writer and not a basketball GM.

With that kind of talent evaluation, are you sure that "J.A. Adande" isn't just a pen name for Isiah Thomas????

Just keep him in the J.A. Adande lounge with that cheesy brick jazz club/flickery sign opening...

He should be embarrassed for even writing that. It's essentially the same deal, but with Blake instead of Jack for Miller? Insanity.

I saw this last night @ lol'd. I was going to post it this morning. I like Adande, but this is absurd.

I think Adande needs to get out of his lounge more.

So JA Andande thinks Philly should get more in return for Andre Miller than they did for AI?

Maybe Andande meant to say Andre IGUIDALA but typed 'Miller' by mistake?

that is too much to give in a trade, but Andre Miller is a pure PG with a high FG% that would do wonders on your team, but idk why you guys want a pure PG with Roy on your team.

i think you guys should just keep what you have and you and NO will be the future of this league for the next 5-7 years (until you have to decide which pieces of your team you want to keep with Roy and Oden maxed out)
